Review of Ghostbusters (2016) by Nathan K — 02 Jan 2017
Big budget fan fiction.
I wanted to like this based on the description (Ghostbusters reboot with female ghostbusters!) and there are enough jokes and special effects to make a good trailer, but all they did was swap the original characters for comic book style cutouts with one personality trait apiece, rehashed the original story with a poorly developed 'mad scientist' storyline and then filled in the rest with one-liners, obligatory cameos, and gadgets that look like they came straight from the merchandising department.
Ghostbusters deserved better.
